Viki Desktop

Your home, on your desktop.

The full Viki experience as a native desktop app — chat with the agent, control your house, and receive real-time alerts. An embedded gateway automatically discovers what lives on your network — Matter, Zigbee and Z-Wave devices, cameras, Shelly, Hue, Sonos and more — and bridges them to your Viki house.

One command installs the daemon with its own runtime, registers the system service, and leaves you one step from pairing. arm64 and x64, no display needed.

curl -fsSL https://vikihome.ai/install-edge.sh | sh

Then run viki-edge pair and approve the 8-character code in your Viki app.

Why does Windows or Linux warn me about this download?

The macOS builds are signed with our Apple Developer ID. On first launch, macOS may show “Apple could not verify…” — right-click the app and choose Open, or go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway. The Windows and Linux installers are not code-signed yet: on Windows click More info → Run anyway; on Linux verify the download against the SHA-256 sums below and chmod +x the AppImage.

System requirements
  • macOS 12+ (Apple Silicon or Intel), Windows 10+ 64-bit, or Linux with glibc 2.28+ (Alpine/musl is not supported).
  • Raspberry Pi 4/5 or any arm64/x64 server for the headless install.
  • Zigbee/Z-Wave need a USB coordinator stick plugged into the same machine.
  • The gateway only makes outbound connections — no port-forwarding required.
